Saqara — Saqara is a digital construction and infrastructure bid management platform.
Ecov - — Ecov is a start-up expert real time carpooling lines. Ecov accompanies businesses and communities in achieving carpool solutions.80% of trips in France are made by private car. This has huge environmental and economic consequences – in France private cars account for 16% of greenhouse gas emissions and eat up 14% of the average household budget.Reliance on cars is also a major social concern, with 54% of people living on a low income having to turn down work due to lack of transport. Moreover, on a day-to-day basis, the average car carries just 1.3 people, meaning that the road transport system (roads + vehicles + users + networks) is not being used efficiently.Carpooling (sometimes also referred to as lift-sharing, car-sharing or ride-sharing) is one solution. However, although carpooling is now a popular choice for long journeys, only 3% of day-to-day trips are made using conventional, pre-booked carpooling services. We believe we can change this.To change behaviours and reduce the number of solo drivers on the roads, we need to re-think how carpooling works. The constraints inherent in pre-booked carpooling are a barrier to uptake. That’s where our new concept – the carpooling line – comes in. Designed to operate like a typical bus line, with a designated route and stops, it allows people to carpool spontaneously, without booking. Drivers make their trip as usual, leaving whenever they want and picking up passengers along the way. At peak times on our busiest lines, passengers wait no longer than 5 minutes for a ride, just like on a high-frequency bus line.

Jared — Jared is an early-stage fintech company that has developed the first intelligent financial assistant for the B2C Market that addresses the need for daily support in understanding and anticipating each individual’s financial needs and objectives.Managing finances is everyone's business, regardless of the amount of their incomes or wealth.Jared comes up to balance deep inequalities in our finances due to differences in financial education. Even if many support and advice solutions do exist (financial advisors, bank advisors, Agregators & Asset Management platform, roboadvisors etc.), they are ill-suited to a large part of the population. At a time when these tools are becoming ever more numerous, many people feel overwhelmed by the complexity of the financial world in which they live, and have difficulties making informed decisions: half of the population doesn’t have any financial goals defined (saving money, preparing its retirement, …). This underscores the need for a tool that helps people understand their own financial situation and recommends goals to achieve.The application is positioned as an interactive financial companion, transforming the crucial step of understanding one's financial situation. By merging advanced technologies with an intuitive user experience, Jared democratizes access to personalized financial information.Jared's innovative approach goes beyond raw data to analyze the financial psychology of each user. By integrating elements of behavioral finance and cognitive science, Jared deciphers the emotions and biases that influence financial decisions. The result is informed analysis and tailored recommendations that go beyond the numbers. Jared's content is tailored to the user's profile, assets and personality.1. Proactive financial education: Beyond simple notifications, Jared acts as an educational guide, providing contextual advice precisely when the user needs it. It transforms complex financial moments into learning opportunities, empowering users. 2. Simplicity and accessibility: By making complex financial information understandable and accessible, Jared democratizes financial management. Users benefit from a user-friendly interface that simplifies decision-making.3. Utilization of behavioral finance: We leverage insights from cognitive science not merely to acquaint ourselves with our users but to comprehensively understand them. We use unique psychometric tests specifically developed to identify hidden characteristics of user. This enables us to assess traits previously unexplored within the realm of finance, offering a deeper understanding of user behavior. 4. Unique competitive advantage in data: This competitive edge lies in our dynamic dataset. With an interactive nature, our dataset continually evolves, allowing us to refine the correlation between content and user profiles with each new data iteration. This agility empowers us to adapt our offerings in real-time, ensuring relevance and efficacy for our users.
